(1,684 posts)I also agree with Richard Griffiths "fascism" is the "most misused, and over-used word, of our times".
Colorado (R) conservatives in northeastern part of Colorado talk about forming a new state "North Colorado" motivations for, are "their" interests being attacked in oil and gas, transport, agriculture, gun control, unfair financial return and other issues affecting isolated rural communities in northeastern Colorado which they say speak for. Their answers to these issues sounds like the usual low taxes, neoliberal, limited government conservatives not my cup of tea if you pardon the pun.
But within their right to form a state according to international law or more likely they'll pursuit through the consent of congress and the states Legislatures in Colorado.
The original question was "Can a county secede from a state?"
Yes
